New approach for strikers
Wimbledon will have to do its best as striker Al-Hamadi, who helped Rotherham United and Barnsley keep an eye on the club’s Player of the Year last season, is now the subject of a new reception for Peterborough United. . Posh will likely return with a higher offer, but it will take something special to lure players away from Johnnie Jackson’s side.
